What we have done for others

We have provided efficient and comprehensive estate planning advice on the disposal of assets in a tax efficient manner both pre-death and post-death and on potential taxation pitfalls.

On a daily basis we advise legal personal representatives on the administration of estate both in testate and in intestate situations.

We have advised both executors and beneficiaries on disputes which arise as a result of the administration of estates and in the construction of Wills.

We draft Wills and trusts in a manner which is tailored to meet our clients’ requirements, including trusts for the protection of minor children, disabled persons and persons with addiction problems.

We have drafted Enduring Powers of Attorney for our clients and advised on the role of attorneys and the implementation of the instrument in case where the donor loses mental capacity.

We have acted in both the purchase and sale of residential properties.
